Hello, everyone my name is Natasha I am a 21 year old female who loves the Lord with all of her heart! I am a young woman who is determined to become all that God desires for her to be. I am outgoing around people I am comfortable with and know. When I first meet a person, I am very quite and reserved. But when you get to know me, I can be really out there!! (only a few people have had the privelage of seeing that) This year has been a very challenging year for me spiritually, I believe that I am not the only person who has been experiencing the fire of living a holy and productive life for the Lord. Below I have pasted one of my devotions from Shirley Weavers ministry. When I read it, it really ministered to me. Reading it reminded me of what I am feeling spiritually and where I am in my life. Hopefully it blesses you...Pressure is a revealer. The pressures of life uncover things I’d never go looking for on purpose. The reason I am pressured is I have arrived at a place I don’t fully have faith to address, and my natural ability to keep going must be recruited to fill in the gap. The problem for me then is, I go into an automatic compensation mode, trying to work my way through without God’s affirmation and my lack of faith figures heavily into the anatomy of the pressure. Without faith it is impossible to please God.Stress is another revealer. I am stressed because my capacity to believe God is short-circuited somewhere. Without the light of God’s Word already stored up in my heart, I fully participate in the stresses that certainly come. The anatomy of stress is actually a process, beginning with pressure and multiple pressures, the result of a faith-crisis, advanced via self-doubt, God-doubt, and doubt concerning others. Stress is not what it’s cracked up to be—stress is not cool, stress is sin.An honest self-judgment of why we yield to pressure and stress is needed. We should acknowledge what King David acknowledged as he examined his own heart during a very difficult time in his life: The king realized the Lord “desires truth†in the most inward part of man—meaning, the deepest, most hidden part of who we really are.We should do what David did, and we should do it on purpose.Amen.With out Gods continuous mercy none of us would be here, so whatever your going through remember that your answer is only a prayer away. If you love life, people, the Lord and your self leave me a message. IF you just want to talk about the Goodness of God message me too!! God bless you and stay encouraged!!!
